I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 447

Shen Shixiu gritted his teeth and pushed Lin Zhao away. He saw that she was wearing the same clothes as she was at South Mountain. His eyes darkened as he pushed her away. “Who asked you to come to Jiang City?”

“Uncle Shixiu, you didn’t think that I’d miss you?”

“Hey, take me seriously!” Shen Shixiu pushed her away with a fierce look in his eyes.

Lin Zhao pouted and looked at Shen Shixiu pitifully. “Come on Uncle Shixiu, how can you be so fierce to me?”

“Call me Uncle Shixiu again?” Shen Shixiu pinched his brows and smacked her hand away. “Who asked you to come to Jiang City?”

“Oh, I am just here to take a look at the company’s projects.” Lin Zhao laughed out loud as she took a look at her reddened hand that Shen Shixiu had smacked. She stepped back and leaned against the wall while her eyes grew into a glare as well. “Mr. Shen, you don’t really think that I am in Jiang City because of you, do you?”

 

His furrowed brows were relaxed suddenly He pursed his lips but his face still did not look good!

Lin Zhao! Each meeting with this woman was like a surprise, and her ability to change her facial expressions was even faster than those in Chinese operas.

 

Shen Shixiu pinched his brows. “Which project needs you to be here?”

“This is a trade secret. It’d be better if you don’t try to find out, Mr. Shen. After all, we don’t know each other that well, do we?” Lin Zhao picked on her nails and stopped, “Oh yes, I saw you at South Mountain just now. And that Ms. Shi? She is quite pretty!”

“You know very well what she looks like!” Shen Shixiu’s gaze was fixated on her. It was when he saw her lazy look that he was reminded of the man. “You came here with Kang Shaocheng?”

“Yup, Mr. Kang is heir to the Qi Dong Group. I don’t think it is inappropriate for me to be here with him!”

“Don’t get involved with him!” Shen Shixiu said while dragging her into the room. “How long do you intend to stay for?”

“That would depends on how long you stay, Uncle Shixiu!” Lin Zhao hopped onto a bar table. Swinging her legs, she looked around and sighed, “You really do know how to enjoy life, don’t you, Uncle Shixiu?”

“Lin Zhao, please speak properly. If you are not taught well, I’ll do it on your uncle’s behalf!”

“Uncle? Hoho, aren’t you my uncle?” Lin Zhao winked. She placed one elbow on the table and used the other arm to pinch her shoulder. “I’m so tired, Uncle Shixiu. Did you know that I just got off the plane today, and immediately, Mr. Kang dragged me…”

“Lin Zhao, where is your sense of shame?”

Lin Zhao paid no attention to that. “Shame is relative. You’ve known me for so long, since when have I been conscious of that?” Lin Zhao was about to say more before the phone rang. Lin Zhao narrowed her eyes and glanced at the screen and her eyebrows raised a little. “Uncle Shixiu, here comes your love rival!”

Shen Shixiu frowned and his eyes fell on the name on Lin Zhao’s phone screen. He immediately took over her phone and slid the answer panel open. A male voice came from the other end, “Hello, Mu!”

Shen Shixiu’s face grew black immediately. “It’s me!”

“Mr. Sh-Shen…Mu..I mean… is Lin Zhao with you now?” From the other side, that man sounded like he was struck by lightning when he heard Shen Shixiu’s voice. Shen Shixiu merely responded with a sneer. “I’ll hang up if you have nothing to say!” With that, he actually hung up the call without any hesitation.

“Tsk tsk, Uncle Shixiu, you are indeed ruthless and speedy when it comes to getting rid of your love rivals…” Lin Zhao was just about to pounce on him when Shen Shixiu stopped her. “Where are you staying?”

“Here!” Lin Zhao giggled. “Why should I go elsewhere since you are here?”

“Would you believe it if I were to throw you out of here?”

When Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan walked out, they felt that something was wrong. “Yan, Mr. Shen looked… really agitated just now!”

Fu Chengyan frowned and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips. “Oh, how did you know that he was agitated?”

Shi Nuan shook her head. “I don’t know, I just felt that he was very agitated. Even though I haven’t known him for a long time, I feel that he is someone who does not wear his heart on his sleeves. However, I could clearly feel that he was angry just now. He was actually pissed!”

Fu Chengyan nodded and reached out to pinch her nose. “Look at you, caring so much for another man. Aren’t you worried that I’d be jealous?”

“How so?” Shi Nuan laughed. “There is nothing between Shen Shixiu and I! Stop saying things like that!”

“Alright, alright.” Fu Chengyan did not continue and merely paused to say, “That girl… you should be able to get to know her at a later time!”

“Oh, you know her?”

“Not really. I have heard of her, that’s all.” Fu Chengyan did not continue and just pulled Shi Nuan into his arms. “Shall we go out?”

“Where to?”

“To the movies?”

“Oh yes, you’d promised me that you’d watch ‘White Nights’ with me!” Shi Nua suddenly thought of that and stopped. “Does that mean that Shu Qing is at Jiang City now?”

Shi Nuan looked at Fu Chengyan and blinked. However, his eyes darkened as he said, “Mmm, should be!”

“Oh, really!” Shi Nuan looked a little excited. “Yan, I would like to attend her press conference. Apparently, there is going to be a preview there too. Do you think you could use that bit of influence under Xinhuang to get me an autograph from Shu Qing or allow me to be there?”

Shi Nuan whined while she shook Fu Chengyan’s arms, “Come on, Xinhuang is so influential, I am sure you can do it, right?”
